The Angels, who hit only 24 homers at Anaheim Stadium during the entire 1976 season, equalled that total when Jerry Remy connected for the circuit during the course of a 6-2 victory over the Red Sox. Remy also drove in another run with a sacrifice fly. Bobby Bonds accounted for two RBIs with a single. [The Sporting News]
